Vintage TT - looking to add one - recommendations?

I have a Denon DP-45F table mated to a Denon DL-301MKII - love it!!

I am going to keep my eyes open for a second deck and wondering if you have any strong recommendations. I like direct drive tables and it needs to at the least have an automatic return.
With some health issues the need for the table to end on its own is important. It doesn't need to return even or turn off....just lift!!

A step up would be nice. I would consider belt driven too. I'm open!!

I am thinking a Denon DP59L maybe. Any other decks you would have me consider?

Thanks in advance for your input. I appreciate it.

Cat9,

I have a vintage JVC QL-Y5F automatic dd table. I paid around $350 for it on agon a little less than a year ago. I have been looking for a vintage Yamaha table to match my all Yamaha vintage system, and I just bought one today. My JVC came with a $100 retail ortofon cartridge on it. I would be willing to let it go for $200 plus shipping without the cartridge or $250 with the cartridge, plus shipping from WI.

Let me know if you have any interest and we can talk further.

With Regards,
Paul

I have a Sony PS-X6 that I think is great. It's fully automatic which is the reason I bought it. I already had a couple of Pink Triangle manual tables for the extreme listening and wanted an auto for casual listening in a spare system. I was very surprised by its performance.

I have a Sony PS-X7, which is a x-6 with a carbon fiber arm, it has new phono cables with Eichmans and has a totally manual function. EVERYONE is surprised by its performance.
